    When i got back into the hobby, i knew having one tank wouldn't last long !
    I have kept a Malawi set up in the past, so this time, i can't stop thinking about a South American tank. I am thinking about geophagus and a green terror, but you have just thrown a
    "Spanner in the works" with this fantastic Malawi video !
    Realistically, it has to be one or the other as i already have a fair sized tank full of
    Green and black ruby barbs.
    I know i will eventually give in to both !
    KAITY AND HER ADDICTIVE VIDEOS 🤦‍♂️😁

    Hi kaity
    That is a Massive store indeed!😯 Our lfs has many ac too and a lot of them are also full grown,but they don't have such a large variety of species like that.( It's a tiny store) Maybe next time you should bring a pair of those seventies plateau shoes with fish tanks for soles,then you can take some of those fish home with you.😄
    Another great video with a Nice Marilyn Monroe moment at the end!😁👍

    Btw, the import, sale and possession of Glo-fish is not permitted within the European Union.

    Awesome video! Another really good aquatics store, definitely another to add to the list to visit if I ever visit that part of the world! Loads of the species there are the same my friend keeps in his aquarium, like the Yellow Labs, Sulphur Peacock and Demasoni Mbuna, really cool to see them in one of your videos as they're really interesting fish to watch 😀 Were there any species you saw there you'd like to add to your aquariums? Also, went gliding again today and learnt how to stall a glider and recover from a flat stall which was more fun than I expected, especially when you're pulling G forces to recover!

    • @Kaityscichlids

You should definitely give gliding a go, that's something you can do in Australia as a couple of the instructors from where I fly go over for the winter to fly there! Ah nice! Yeah those are really cool species, if I had a cichlid aquarium I'd like a Trewavasae, they look really cool! That's the species your fish called Bart is isn't he? I've never heard of the white lip Mdoka before, they really look unique for sure!

They're a bit different to cichlids, but have you ever thought about building an aquarium for any more unusual species like mudskippers or gobies? Those are really cool, and would be a very different kind of fish to build a biotope aquarium for 😀
